“I don’t have any moral responsibility because I believe the trolley shouldn’t exist in the first place.” Totally nuanced and not completely missing the point of the analogy at all. If only everyone knew we could just magically make the trolley disappear we could have skipped over the decades of philosophy written about the trolley problem because the solution is so easy!
Yes, it’s totally a strawman. You definitely don’t think that we should not pull the lever and instead question why the trolley exists. That’s definitely not what your original comment said. Because those two are mutually exclusive anyway. We can only ever do one thing, like question the existence of the trolley or pull the lever to save more lives. It’s definitely not possible to vote to keep things from getting worse while also working the other 364 days to dismantle the trolley.
I didn’t say my life dipshit. The lives of immigrants and trans people will be objectively worse under Trump than Harris. You are one privileged enough to “take the high road” and not do the bare fucking minimum to keep things from getting worse for them. I am proud to pull the lever and do what I can do to keep their lives from getting worse while still working to dismantle the system that got us here.
Not everyone is capable of comprehending a nuanced and complex solution.
You offer no evidence of any capacity to question the contrivance of a despicable “problem.”

I mean you said those words, no need to beat yourself up cause you have a little straw on your face.
What are you, 5? “I know you are but what am I?”
You quoted yourself, then attacked the strawman with all you had.
You then expect me to defend your made up straw argument, failed.
Since you seem to need it, I’ve explained it to you like a 5 year old.

How incredibly privileged and ignorant must one be to believe their lives are being kept from “from getting worse” under Harris?
